Assiniboine River Walk Extremely Slippery, Lighting Removed

The City of Winnipeg has temporarily removed light standards along the Assiniboine River Walk from the Osborne Bridge to the Main Street Bridge in order to prevent potential damage from river ice during the spring break-up.

Light standards will be put back up when conditions permit.

The City also warns that the walkway along the River Walk from the Legislative Building steps to The Forks is extremely slippery. Citizens are advised to avoid using the walkway, or to use extreme caution if they do so anyway.
